Here's the video of the winning performance of the Westminster Chorus from Southern California at the 2009 Choir of the World festival in Llangollen, Wales. The first piece is Eric Whitacre's "Lux Aurumque," which we're singing this Christmas. After that, they sing less traditional barbershop versions of "Shenandoah" and "Didn't my Lord Deliver Daniel." Enjoy!

Directions to rehearsal
Here's a map of St. Alban's, in case you're new to the space (click on the map to enlarge it):
Hi guys,
There are several ways to enter the grounds by car:
From Massachusetts Ave., just to the SE of Wisconsin Ave., via Pilgrim Rd.
From Wisconsin Ave., either through the St. Alban's Church gates on Lyon Gate Rd.,
or
on South Rd., just South of the main Cathedral lawn.
The main parking is on Pilgrim Rd., where it widens, north of the Amphitheater.
The outside staircase to access the choir room is just off Senior Circle, at the bottom of the orange part of the circle, just above the new Marriott Hall (#10 on the map). Just follow the white line (the outside stairs and path) down, around the library (#11) and straight into Steuart (#12).
If you're parking the Senior Circle and want to take the elevator, enter Marriott Hall through the big glass doors right off Senior Circle. Walk down the hall until you reach the elevator on the right. Go down to the first floor (I think) and walk straight out towards the "join" between Marriott Hall and Steuart. Continue walking down the hall in Steuart and the choir room will be at the end of the hall on the right.
